    ok fine, i go for it. even tho there is an old thread that got slaughtered and modified from someone that had 2 great ideas for midweek madness. since then a major game changer has occurred that wasnt implied at that point:

    i agree with herby and have mentioned it in the past that midweek madness is important for new servers, for the first 2-3 weeks. with the 100 gem items in fair now that has been reduced to a single day (1st wednesday after server opening). keeping an event alive for a single day after a server has opened seems silly and screams for a change. the players moved on, the server and the game has moved on. everything develops and now let certain events like midweek madness evolve.
    now from previous posts about this i remember 4 suggestions that where made

    casino day
    additional 50% off on all chip purchases or increased odds of winning something "worth it"

    pet appreciation day
    (from chickenwing if i remember right) all feeding caps are removed or significantly raised.
    i.e: coin feeds up to x100 and/or gem feeds reduced to 2 gems

    reputation day
    do something so newbies can gain rep faster

    stamina day
    1 stamina in 5min or other changes to it

    Again, please do not think that the world of Tynon orbits around your server, and that everything must be changed in your server's favour.
    LOL Herby, Herby. Again with the snotty reply. MY comment had nothing to do with my server!! It has to do with the fact that the fair outprices the Wed chests. Most guilds with buffs you can get more in shrine, then buy in fair and you get much more than 1 99 gem chest. Needs gone, that's simple. Unless Tynon makes fair and things different on other servers, that I would not know. But pretty certain it's the same everywhere.

    Ideas I like.

    "Half price casino spins." So 50 chips a spin. Still a gamble, but perhaps more people would be willing to risk that at double the rewards.

    "Pet Appreciation day." Some kind of bonus to getting pets up AS LONG as you're willing to spend gems. Say anything past your feed cap you can spend 5 gems and 1M to feed another time. Or just make there be no cap, but the cost goes up the amount of times you use it, kind of like the shrine, but with coins.
    So 1M first 5 (or whatever your cap is based off of VIP) 1.5M 5-10 feeds, 2M 10-20 feeds, etc. This way you can save coins up for your pets and dump them all in one day. Maybe needs more of a gem dump within it?

    Rep... Some better way for those who can't hit World bosses hard or win in Rag to gain rep. Its the hardest thing to get in the game without spending gems, there needs to be a better way that if you're willing to spend gems, you can get rep.

    The name is right on because it is a real mystery why any one would buy one .

    i just wanna comment to this that ragna is the WORST way to get rep (45 winning streak gives you roughly 3.5k and 2x20 streak like 500 if i remember right). banishes and arena are currently the best ways to get rep and spending 5 gems to get 100 rep in the casino or buff 100% for HP to get 20 rep rewards feels like an insult.

    I like these two ideas.
    Reputation, because it ordinarily takes 3 months for a top player on a new server to get Adamanti, and ~12 months for an average *devoted* active player. After four months (s114) our regular players in the top10 are now hitting their 200k rep mark. At their rate they'll get Adamanti in 16 months.

    And Stamina, because it's always useful but not overpowering.

    This is the best idea IMO. Add "mystery" items to it!
